Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn’t? I understand bandwidth limits, but how can home internet get away with giving users all the data they can use, but cell phone providers can’t?

    Ok, I missed the sarcasm and allusion to the US as the country you were talking about. That’s fair.

    I assumed the OP was asking the question for the US. Which of course, is the thing people in my country do. Assume everything is about us ;)

        Closer to 96/95% now ;) But yeah, your point stands. What’s even worse about this, is I’m working on a dual citizenship with Portugal, so I should have had more self-awareness than I showed ;)
